The ‘five step’ model
Required:
(i) Discuss the principles in IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with
Customers which should be used by Zedtech to determine the
recognition of the above contracts. (5 marks)
(ii) Discuss how the above contracts should be recognised in the
financial statements of Zedtech under IFRS 15. (7 marks)
2019/3&6 Q4b Zedtech
Suggested answer:
(i) IFRS 15 states that the entity must identify the performance
obligations in the contract. Once an entity has identified the contract
with a customer, it evaluates the contractual terms and its customary
business practices to identify all the promised goods or services
within the contract and determine which of those promised goods or
services will be treated as separate performance obligations.
2019/3&6 Q4b Zedtech
Allocating a ‘discount’
Discounts are allocated on a proportionate basis, unless there is
observable evidence that the discount relates to one or more specific
performance obligation(s) after meeting all of the following criteria:
• The goods or services (or bundle thereof) in the performance
obligation are regularly sold on a stand-alone basis, and at a
discount
• The discount is substantially the same in amount to the discount
that would be given on a stand-alone basis.
Step 5 – Recognise revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied
